1:00 pm
thank you for joining us that is the story on the sunday august 18. we'll be here all week covering this story as it moves through chicago and we are looking forward to it at the democratic national convention event after event after an event. lot of great analysis from both sides form president trump tomorrow in the afternoon around this time laying out his economic plan. we will bring you that, live it. fox report starts with jon scott right about now. have a great afternoon. ♪ ♪ ♪. jon: little over 12 hours till the start of the democratic
1:01 pm
national convention vice president kamala harris minnesota governor tim walz will officially accept nominations for this fall's election. good evening i am in jon scott this is a special two hour edition of the fox report. ♪ a full slate of democratic speakers will take the stage of the united center in chicago this week. walls and harris expected speeches set for wednesday and thursday and president biden kicks off the convention tomorrow night with the primetime speech. fox team coverage in outlook as thompson ascended by the white house to preview president biden's address. first white house correspondent peter doocy live in chicago with more on this week's convention. peter. >> good afternoon. preconvention talking points are out. harris circuits are being told make sure people watching at home do not think she is a communist. >> let's be clear i note that
1:02 pm
kamala harris believes in the free market i do not think there's anything communist about wanting to make housing more affordable and prescription drugs more affordable. >> officials are telling us every night it's going to have his own theme here in chicago. the headlines will be for the people and then a bold vision for america's future. and then a fight for our freedoms and then a fight for our future par but you notice wh all those headlines they very, very broad. nobody seems to be in that big of a hurry to start offering more specifics while democrats are still lining up to donate volunteer. >> there is an incredible moment across this country to make sure kamala harris becomes an the net president of the united states and tim walz because the next vice president for the democrats take back the house and senate we are actually able to make significant progress on so many important issues. i think this is a moment for us as an organizer i think about it this way but this is what i call organizer bold.
1:03 pm
>> it's really all about harris and walls. there's very little evidence joe biden is the current president and only four weeks ago this was supposed to be his convention. white house officials are telling us president biden right now is actually hosting white house executive resident staff for a first of its kind meeting at camp david. jon: sort of papered over hasn't he? >> indefinitely. they test out the music for tomorrow. >> okay with that of everything tested that is for sure. peter doocy standing by at the dnc and chicago thank you. >> there not even giving him a good spot to speak to no one he speaking? on monday. that is the worst day. >> president biden be the first major speaker at the dnc is donald trump just said given the key note speech tomorrow night just four weeks ago today biden
1:04 pm
ended his reelection bid and threw his support behind his vice president kamala harris. lucas thompson is live at the white house with more. lucas excuse me. >> president biden returning here to the white house and as you mentioned from camp david he dropped out of the race less than a month ago. now he will be putting the finishing touches on that address the democratic national convention. he has a much shorter deadline we just heard from peter is going to be speaking tomorrow not thursday as originally planned. dnc plans a tribute video a lifetime achievement award if you will highlighting present biden's time here in washington beginning when richard nixon was president. that's a well-deserved tribute to the president who is the most of my life. when i think about the things he has done in his four years, our early rivals and surpasses what
1:05 pm
some have done and eight. >> of democratic nominee for president spoke a few minutes ago outside of pittsburgh. >> we all here love our country. and we know our country is going to be as strong as our willingness to fight for it. own to fight for what we stand for. would you know what you stand for you know what to fight for. when you stand for working people he fight for working people. >> at a recent rowing roku anna kamala harris admitted prices are higher today than they were in trouble is in office. >> prices are still too high. a loaf of bread cost 50% more today than it did before the pandemic. ground beef is up almost 50%. >> earlier on "fox news sunday" donald trump running mate senator jd vance spoke about paharris' plan to fix the econo.
1:06 pm
>> the american people just don't buy the idea that kamala harris has vice president for three and half years is some outgoing to tackle the inflation crisis somehow tomorrow than she is not for the past 1300 days giving kamala harris control over inflation policy. it's like giving jeffrey epstein control over human trafficking policy. >> president biden were returning her to the white house shortly but of course he will be turning to his legacy. one of the things he hopes to accomplish a cease-fire in gaza cease-fire proposal today that hamas rejected it. jon: lucas tomlinson at the white house for us, thanks. top democrat officials are bracing for massive protest during this convention week. tens of thousands of anti- israel demonstrators are expected to descend on the windy city. illinois governor jd pritzker is downplaying the risk of violence. >> honestly peaceful protest and will protect the posters but
1:07 pm
also protect people visiting and the residents of chicago. the plan has been a place for a foryour recorder now already. we're going to execute on the plan in the next four days. jon: let's bring in state department deputies special envoy under former president trump. that mayor's office in chicago, some of the other powers that be have been accused of sort of pandering to the anti- israel protesters. do you see it that way? >> jon comments right to be with you. sadly for the democrat party this 100,000 protesters they're thereexpecting outside of the convention center have as much sway on kamala harris and her vp pick as the people inside the convention center. for 10 months now we have seen the democrat party. we have seen kamala harris.
1:08 pm
the support and really allow this anti- american, anti- somatic protest movement to flourish across the country. and now they are reaping what they have sewed. i expected to be a lot of chaos. just like when prime minister netanyahu came to washington d.c. was the pro- hamas mobs a burning american flags i'm expecting a lot of the same kind of hateful activities outside of the dnc. jon: we are jd pritzker of the governor's and we welcome the protesters. they should all have a voice. but i don't know, and you think is going to come to regret those words? >> i have no doubt he will regret those words. we all of us believe in freedom of speech. it's one of our greatest rights as americans. however what we have seen of these are pro- hamas mobs is they veer into hatred and hate speech they rear into violence. we have seen them wearing terrorist arm beds and flying
1:09 pm
terror flags. and jon, we have to remember our intelligence agents just a few weeks ago warned us these protests are being organized and funded by the islamic republic of our bronze regime. this is who is behind the hateful anti- american activity. i have to draw the contrast of the trump administration, the trump campaign which just this week i helped to launch with some wonderful other members of the jewish community. we helped launch the jewish voices for trump coalition. what we sell the rnc were i was in person is going to be such a huge contrast. at the rnc we saw it love it for the hostage families. we so love and support for israel. with eight republican jewish coalition matt brooks came out and said if you support israel let me hear you cheer and the
1:10 pm
whole crowd of 18000 at the rnc went wild. we saw the harvard student who is now suing harvard for anti-semitism. when chavez came out and spoke at the rnc love and support from 18000 people he saw president trump reaffirm his support for israel the jewish people. the rnc was truly a loving environment for juice and for the jewish state of israel. and sadly the dnc will prove to be a hate fest. again not only toward the jewish people but towards america. >> the spokesperson for what is called the coalition to march on the dnc said they would consider holding back the protests when kamala harris got the nomination. but then decided let's go ahead and purchased anyway. here is some of what he had to say. >> all of the social justice
1:11 pm
issues and movements fighting with us in the coalition, they are all standing up saying collectively and in unity stop the genocide. and big u.s. aid to israel but free palestine from occupation and colonization and hold the democrats especially biden/harris and a blanket accountable because they are complicit in the genocide. they are responsible for the deaths. jon: he talks a lot about genocide but does not talk about happened in israel on october 7. >> exactly right. we find it all these pro- hamas types in this country really kind of forgetting hamas started the october 7 war. that they invaded israel and massacred 1200 jews because in the deadliest state since the holocaust. again this movement stands against everything that we in the united states support our fundamental values, our belief
1:12 pm
in western civilization. and it is really sad to see kamala harris has not stood up to this pro- hamas movements. and so here we are now 10 months into it. the dnc creating offenses. we are seeing stores in the chicago area boarding output 100,000 people been descending upon the city. we are expecting chaos and violence it is really a sad state of affairs. i think the split screen for the american people again comparing the republican national convention two at the dnc is promising to be, i think that is a split screen. patriotism at the rnc and the american hatred of the dnc. that split screen is a perfect image for americans for deciding who they want to vote for come november. are we going to stand up for america? are we going to let the forces who hate our country and all of our values win? truly i believe in the american people and we are going to see
1:13 pm
president trump back in the white house soon. jon: i feel so for the cops in chicago they are going to be taken off a lot of heat and risking their lives it would seem. i hope they all stay safe. ellie cohanim thank you. >> thank you jon. meanwhile vice president harris and her running mate tim waltzer on a bus trip. polls have harris in a dead heat with former president trump in that state. bryan llenas is live with the harris campaign in pittsburgh. >> hey jon, nothing underscores the importance of pennsylvania. it is a must when commonwealth for the campaign like coming here right before the democratic national convention paid vice president kamala harris her running mate and their spouses launching a four stop bus to her today in and around the pittsburgh area. but as well as in beaver county. the two buses are now headed to a fire house in beaver county.
1:14 pm
that is a county former president trump won in 2020 by the way by some 20 points. the vice president stopping at retail shops we are told later on as well as she stopped earlier at a phone bank thanking volunteers. that is where she seemingly really had choice of words for the former president trump. who last night in wilkes-barre had attacked harris with some personal insults. this is a vice president harris said just a few moments ago. >> that is what strength looks like. anybody who is about beating down other people is a coward. this is what strength looks like. >> note trump comment last night held a rally and a packed arena and wilkes-barre, pennsylvania he did talk about the issues but also attacked vice president
1:15 pm
kamala harris laugh and looks, listen. >> i am a better looking person then kamala. have you heard her laugh? that is the laugh of a crazy person. that is a laugh of a crazy perkin. it'the laugh of a lunatic. >> some republicans have come out here and said they would like them to focus more on the isissues and not the personal insults. this is working brand-new fox power ranking show harris is gaining ground on the issues against a former president. particularly on the economy and many voters s say they prefer trump over president biden on the economy by 15 points but now trump lights up just eight points is a seven-point swing to harass trump's lead on immigration is also down from plus 18 against bite into plus 13 versus harris. that the shift of five points. a fox news power rankings also show they prefer harris on climate change and abortion. democracy and elections in healthcare.
1:16 pm
trump is preferred largely on immigration and the economy. those of the two big issues we have been talking about and the economy is a huge issue here in western pennsylvania. less at the former president attacked harris her foot popping on the issue of fracking. she is now fort fracking according to her advisor. one last note underscoring the importance of the commonwealth former president trump and his running mate will both be here in pennsylvania tomorrow and multiple events counter program and the dnc. jon: pennsylvania would they'll be seeing a lot of both of those campaigns in the days ahead. bryan llenas thank you. we are learning more about early morning shoot out the gates of a texas air force base. the search for the suspected shooter what authorities are saying about this gunbattle. formulations of 7 moisturizers and 3 vitamins. for all your skins, gold bond.

[cheering and applause] >> we don't call each other names. we do not do it.
2:03 pm
>> that was both harris and walz responding to a rally last night where the former president insulted or called harris left a lunatic and called her communist we are getting new fox news power rankings that talk about the key qualities in candidates and harris leads on three of those qualities, honesty, temperament and mentally sound as well as cares about you and chairs value. the only quality that trump is leaving on right now with voters this who they think would be a strong leader. as for where harris is on the issues, she has gained ground onto the most important issues to voters. that is the economy and on immigration. in may when trump was going against president biden, trump had a 15-point advantage versus biden on the economy. that advantage is now down to just plus eight points and on immigration it was plus 18 and elegance harris it is plus 13. this is what the trump campaign
2:04 pm
had to say about why they think harris is making these gains. >> behavioral democrats coming home and there's an artificial halo effect of the media propping up kamala harris. >> the early vote here in pennsylvania, john, begins amazingly on september 16. that is just 29 days away. it explains why the harris/walz campaign is here. it also explains why former president trump and his running mate jd vance will be having multiple stops here tomorrow in pennsylvania. a must win for both campaigns. >> we talk about election day being 80 days out. as you say, it starts in just a couple of weeks. thank you, brian. >> while the democrats gather in ohio the trump vance campaign will make stops in multiple battleground states this week. let's bring in marsha blackburn from tennessee.

you have seen the surge that kamala harris has made in the polls and she became the de facto nominee. what do you think is going on then can the former president blunt that sir? >> the more american people get to know about her, the less they are going to like her policies. that is what this election will be about. when you look at her being the deciding vote on the inflation reduction act and the america recovery act, when you look at the fact that she never even actually went to the border, she went near the border, she did not call the border patrol chief , she has for allowing the illegals to vote. she is for doing away with private health insurance. and doing the medicaid for all program. she has for defunding i.c.e. she has all of these policies that are outside of the american
2:06 pm
mainstream and as people begin to realize what she has for, then they are going to change their opinion of her and as they get to know what she stands for. she has been voted the most liberal senator in the u.s. senate. that was in 2019. at that time i was voted the most conservative so she was really the 180 from me. >> as you know, she has not had a news conference since she became the de facto nominee. nobody is allowed to ask her those questions about her positions on some of these issues and if she is just able to get up on stage and, you know , spout campaign themes or recite a stump speech, will people ever really find out what she believes? >> i think that they will. president trump and senator

2:09 pm
>> i think that the democrats chose not to understand the seriousness of this situation. they have wanted to say it was not a big issue and now that the top two issues are the economy and the border in the biden harris border policy has been an open border. when you look that under president trump we had the most secure border then we have had in years. john, 10 million people that have come across out border. people from over 150 different countries coming in here. you look at the tens of thousands of chinese. the number of known terrorists, even last week admitting that 99 known terrorists had been released in the country this year. you look at these numbers and you look at the gangs in the crime in communities all across this country. every town is a border town.
2:10 pm
every state is a border state. you look at the death by fit and all. the crimes carried out against women and children by some of these criminal illegal aliens and the american people understand this issue much more than my democratic colleagues have understood this issue. now they are having to say let's do something about it because it is election time. that are the top two issues. >> i want to play some sound. listen to this. >> she was able to establish. her team has done a very good job of avoiding the issues. making people believe she has not been there for four years. at the same time kind of capitalizing on trump's reaction they knew that the former reaction could be a reactionary action. the message is very clear.
2:11 pm
if you stick to the issues, if you stick to what matters, they should be an easy race for donald trump. >> tougher for the former president to beat kamala harris and joe biden. do we agree? >> as a get to know her, they look at this chaotic democratic national convention that is going to take place this week, what they are going to see her policies that are so far out side of the mainstream of what they believe. what they are hoping for for their families. john, people are tired of being broke. they want to see this economy put back on the firm footing. because of this, and a lot of these voters are going to move to supporting president trump and senator vance. jon: all right.

2:23 pm
proud of it. came out with really great energy. the democrats left thousands of protesters showing up. i suppose it could have been worse if she picked the person she showed up for vice president but she has a leftist as bad as she is, tim walz from minnesota instead. that painter painting the platform will have a lot of painting to do to make this thing look good. >> the city is expecting protests. they are inviting protests. the mayor said they are all welcome to come in. raymond lopez who is a chicago city alderman says not all protesters are created equal. listen. >> we do know there are many individuals working hand in glove with the mayor of the city of chicago to bring protest to the united center. he is not just allowing all protesters but select protesters not allowing the pro-israel demonstrators near the united

center, but he's allowing those that are supportive to be close and vocal. >> if you are pro-israel, you are not allowed to be close to this democratic national convention. >> it does bake the question which kamala harris we will get this week. is it the one that helped usher 20% of term inflation, high gas prices, open border, violent crime in the cities, tim walz know something about that. he allowed it to happen in minneapolis. i think it will be at least a minor if not a medium to major mess. but it will be that anyway. you know what, kamala harris does not have one opponent this year, she has to. she has donald trump, and, frankly, she has her self. she has her self and joe biden because she cannot erase the last three and a half years of their bad record.
2:25 pm
every single pull out there including the fox news poll shows that the democrats are upside down on every major issue every kitchen table issue facing americans that are watching us right now. there is no amount of a slick show that they can put on in chicago, protests or not, they will cover that up. >> you can say that, but at least in some of the polls, the swing states, kamala harris is now leading trump which was not the case when it look like when joe biden was going to be the nominee. >> i think it's fair to say there is been a harris honeymoon out there in the polling. at some point in the honeymoon, i mean, a lot of it at the start was relief of getting joe biden off the ticket. the problem is she is joe biden the sequel. she got a bump out of that. they picked for vice president presumably getting a bump out of this convention.

2:35 pm
in the weather center with more on that feedback really active weather pattern leading off here a bunch of showers from the mid-atlantic. stretching into new england as we sit here currently. there is one area we are paying attention to where the storms have really been coming down. that is where we are looking at a flash flood emergency. the threat catastrophic is what we are paying attention to. looking at a fairly wide area where this deeper orange, total inches of rainfall, these are some of the cities i can be had there were hardest. 6 inches in stamford, up to 9 inches of rain. most of this has come in the last 12 hours. that is just more rain then delete anywhere can absorb that quickly. if you look all the way through tuesday. as we ring out some of this moisture, there will be isolated areas where we get a couple more inches. more rain on the way.

2:37 pm
dustin, thank you for being with us. >> good to be here. >> polling is an inexact science the new york times poll has vice president harris slightly ahead right now. that is actually before the democratic convention where she is expected to get somewhat of a bump. is that something that we expect will last? >> interesting as a pollster. this whole summer we have had a historic landscaping shift event happening all the way back to late may with the manhattan convention. he had a preconvention bounds which was interesting to see. then we had the unprecedented event of biden dropping out. as a pollster, that does change the race as far as what you think about. i think a lot of posters are trying to deal with that.
2:38 pm
our own polling is very true. they did reset the race by throwing biden overboard. i think the coverage has helped her quite a bit weird also the contrast between her invited and really giving hope to democrats again that they are back in the game. one month ago kamala harris was less popular than joe biden and now she has a three and a half% net favorability. there is definitely something going on within the numbers. >> jd vance, president, former president trump's running mate was talking about it with shannon bream today. here is how he sees it. >> kamala harris got a bit of a sugar high a couple weeks ago. what we have seen is that kamala harris is already leveled off. if you talk to insiders in the campaign, they are very worried about where they are because the american people just do not buy the idea that kamala harris who
2:39 pm
has been vice president for three and a half years will somehow tackle the inflation crisis in a way tomorrow that she has not for the past 1300 days. >> let's take a look also at the fox news power ranking on the issues and where each candidate stands. this may differ from your rolling somewhat. trump is up 13 points on immigration. eight points on the economy and five points on foreign policy and crime. three on guns. on the other side the blue side of the wheel you see kamala harris up on climate change. the supreme court uniting the country up three points and five points. the polling or the fox news
2:40 pm
polling. really the top two issues are the economy and inflation. after that inflation and the border. on those two issues donald trump definitely leads significantly. the one area that comes in after that is abortion. democrats generally have a lead there. if you're looking for fundamentals i don't think jd vance is too far off. when people look at the economy in particular, they look at the last few years. there is no difference between kamala harris and joe biden. there will be some of that just actual policies coming back. it will be interesting to see if over the next week the democrats can have in their convention some daylight between harris and biden when it comes to the economy but i have a feeling it will be hard for them to do so. >> a fascinating week ahead. thank you for coming in.
